[Shannon in ATL]

I had one of those days today... Yesterday I overslept so had to exercise when I got home instead, it actually was fun. This morning I was a little stiff from exercising late in the day yesterday and had to force myself to get up and going... I actually had to get off the treadmill after 1 mile and move to the elliptical because the treadmill just wasn't doing it for me...

But I did it!!!! I stuck it out for an hour of cardio!!...

That was me yesterday. I just didn't feel the desire, energy or whatever you want to call it to workout. I was dragging myself thru my routines and it was getting to me. But I did it. And, I even had a little tantrum after the workout. I don't know why but I just lost it. So, definitely a big for all of us sticking to it even though we don't want to some days.

Many, many days like this. Had another one this morning. The only reason I exercise is because I have a dog, and I owe it to her to walk. Thank God I have her, otherwise I'd never get any cardio or fresh air.

Just Mondays? For me, it's most days ! lol

I'm sure it will get easier as my huge butt gets smaller

hmmm
I wish I felt like that only on Mondays...
Lately have been like this everyday...
But I realize the hardest part is to get there... so I try just don’t think about it and keep driving to the gym.
Once I am there I won’t turn my back and leave...
It feels really bad while I am doing it, but the afterwards sensation of accomplishment is amazing!!!
And when I look around me at the gym and see all that “motivated” people rocking the machines, I wonder: “Are they having the same hard time than me to keeping going?”

but it does help to know we are not alone on it and there are other people out there who goes through this and just manage to work out... so, why can’t I do it too??
